- During this autumn season, we give thanks that special places like Phantom Ranch continue to exist. Here is a little love song for Phantom Ranch, the "Heart of Grand Canyon"
Phantom Ranch, is a historic oasis nestled at the bottom of Grand Canyon; a storied place that can only be reached on foot, by mule, or by rafting the Colorado River.
An audio described version of this video is located on this page:

Grand Canyon In Depth is a video podcast series that explores the natural and human history of Grand Canyon National Park. Produced by the National Park Service in association with Bristlecone Media and Grand Canyon Association, the official nonprofit partner of Grand Canyon National Park.

March of 1982 I went to Phantom Ranch and stayed in a tent across Bright Angel Creek. Left the South Rim in a literal blizzard and walked out of it. By the time we reached the bridge at the bottom you could look back and see the blizzard still raging and it was 82 and sunny at the bottom. My Dad and I spent a week in the bottom of the Grand Canyon, 2 days at Phantom Ranch. That trip is still engraved in my heart. I saw colors in a sunrise from Plum Creek campground that I still can never reproduce. I heard a symphony on a record player several years later that almost brought tears to my eyes, when asked if I was OK i said , "yes". But this music reminds me of the Grand Canyon.......he showed me the album cover and it was "The Grand Canyon Suite" by Leonard Bernstein! Bernstein actually recorded "The Grand Canyon Suite" at Phantom Ranch. Absolutely unbelievable!
A very special place that definitely etches itself into your soul. I love it there!
Man Im from Nepal and we have Himalayas, but Grand Canyon surprised me. I went down to Phantom ranch and It is incredibly amazing experience.
Love seeing my families home.
Blessings to all tribe's of Mother Earth 🌎. 🌎
On May 5th of 2023 , I walked into Phantom Ranch I was walking side to side very dehydrated I saw a empty table it was around 11 am as I was taking my
Backpack off . I was approached by a man who helped me sit down and handed me a drink and said drink this it will help you I remember sitting down and he came back and asked if he could put a cold towel over my head. He asked me if I was staying overnight I said no that I was going out today he said I can ask the Rangers and see if they have anything available for you I said no I believe I can go with some rest and recovery. So I stayed around and ate rehydrating and as I was leaving it was around 12:30 a large crowd of people arrived and I could not say Thank you to this man who after watching this video I now know is Mr. Alfredo Conde , so Thank you SIR for your kindness you showed me I will always remember you as one who helped me at my time of need. I was able to hike out by taking plenty of breaks and was out by 7:45 that night.
I'm part of the one percent club, I stayed at the phantom ranch last year. It is the most beautiful experience in the world. I'm going again next May!
I know this is an old post but I am going with a group toward the end of june. How horrible is the heat going to be? I've heard its miserable. I'm use to 95 to 105 with high humidity but I've heard this is like 110 to 120. That's heat stroke weather

Hope this comment brings back some memories / helps someone... So, in the winter of 1972-1973 my Dad and Stepmother and I hiked down the Bright Angel trail , spent the night at a camp area very near Phantom ranch. After a day or so, the weather turned very cold , and my Dad became concerned .... we found out it had dumped over a foot of snow at the rim area... So, we ended up getting a mule train ride out of the area , but after spending the night at Phantom ranch in one of the cabins. I recall there was a woman who was the " caretaker / host " of Phantom Ranch who cooked breakfast for us and maybe another couple that had spent the night..... I cannot remember her name, but she would have been in her 50s..... maybe close to 60 years old. She was a rugged woman, I recall. Anyway the mule ride was un eventful , there was a "mule skinner " named Ed ... I have a few photos from the event. I recall there was a swimming pool t Phantom Ranch that had not been functional in awhile. Pretty neat memory...which is coming up on 50 years ago now....
When you are actually there, this place is so beautiful it will bring tears to your eyes!
I've NEVER been to the Grand canyon. But I'm planning a 4x4 and rafting trip from Denver Colorado to the Grand canyon following the River the entire way
Nostalgic! Visited twice - in 1978 and again in 1995.
Job well done on this presentation!
Fascinating and oh, so interesting. Was there in the late 1960s, but did not go to its depth to visit the Phantom Ranch. Shame on me for missing the experience of being at the heart of Grand Canyon.
i'm 12 and i'm going there spring break of 2019 that's this year i'm so excited we booked the mule trip i cant weight i hear its awesome.
I bet this is going to be something you will never forget!
Safe travels buddy!
Wait*
@@jasonbourne1518 Just curious, why did you feel the need to be a condescending jerk to a 12 year old, as if they chose their own mode of transport? Were you going through a hard time and taking it out on a kid on the internet, or is that just your MO?
Perhaps you will someday be cursed with knees that age, fail you, and deprive you of the opportunity to hike on your own accord because perhaps it is you who doesn't deserve the GC.
Great video GrandCanyonNPS! I've been fortunate to stay at Phantom Ranch and I have lots of hikes posted on my TH-cam page in the Grand Canyon. There is NOTHING like a fresh lemonade at Phantom Ranch.
Those Native Americans had a lot of Treasures. Love the Grand Canyon.
Wow!! Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
"the grand canyon is like an onion" best sentence i've ever heard
It's like ogres and onions, it has layers!
Különleges helyek ,természeti szépsége ,varázslatos : egy azon csodával . felbecsülhetetlen természeti kíncsel rendelkezik .Hálás , mind ezt láthatom ,és gyönyörködhetem benne .
That park service hat brim looks sharp enough to cut wood !! 😂
Cool channel and vids.. Cant wait for more!! Greetings from the Vegas Strip
1:27 I fished the mouth of that creek into the Colorado river using spinners for trout but had no luck so I switched to power bait and caught 5 nice sized carp. It took me by surprise! I was maybe 13 or 14. Left my dad and brother behind and did my own thing for hours and came back to the camp. No one was there so I went farther down the trail to the store and found them drinking lemonade. This was back in 03 or sometime close. The mouth of the creek was aimed more down river and the water was flowing stronger. Strange how it looks different but that’s erosion for ya.

Were there any tribes that lived in the grand canyon?
Yes, the Havasupai Tribe.
Who built that bridge over the water, and why and when?
True story, about 2 hours into our ride down in 1990, a gust of wind blew a PEBBLE into my LEFT EYE. lol I was wearing contacts so i HAD to was my eye, swap lenses, all while on the back of my Jackass Jolene. I tried to put my old lens back into the case, but I DROPPED IT. lol sorry for littering. I wonder if it's still down there?
A lot of people who have been there say the mules are being abused! They are in terrible condition dehydrated with wounds and not taken care of ! The park should be ashamed of using poor animals like that ! If you decide to hike down and then up use your own feer, do not torture poor mules who are already exhausted!
I've been in the canyon 3 times, never taken a mule ride, but been passed by them, including last year. They all looked in very good condition. Maybe it was just because I was desperately wishing for a ride on that climb back up, but I thought they looked gorgeous. The mule deer in the canyon, however, looked like there might not have been enough grass to go around. They didn't get the usual rain last year, so hoping this year's monsoon brings them plenty of leafy greens to munch.
wowww
I went on a raft down here, it was beautiful
Idézet:egy Teljesen más világban vagyok, ami meghaladja földiéletem . Kicsit olyan mintha , ez lenne a másvilág . Utazás bolygók között .- Már itt a földön -.van a föld , és Rajta több kisebb bolygó , ami Járt , és titokzatos . .ilyenkor kicsinek ,és védtelennek érzem magam .Elveszek a világok közt . .és félek nem találok haza .
I am there enjoying it
Where are the Egyptian artifacts? That is what I want to know.
I thought she’d get into the forbidden caverns & the hidden parts kept off access to the pubic
😒😑 still a good video though ✌🏼👍
You know it would be totally fantastic!!! If you didn't feel the need to play music so loud in the background that you can hardly hear the person taking. If I need background music when I'm trying to watch a video. I can turn my radio on. I don't need loud music when I'm watching a video. Like who wants to struggle to hear what a person is saying
You see the little CC in upper right hand corner it will solve your problem.
"At Phantom it doesn't get any better than this" hahahaha, right
yeah keep the hordes on the corridor trails, fine with me
dufam,ze sa da ubytovat na paru noci u vas v grand Canyone
Just look at how many idiots gave thumbs down ..on this beautiful God made marvel...G...Jones
Hi, I'm doing the Mule ride down. Do you know if they allow drone flying at Phantom?
"It has been water that has drawn people here for the last 1000-1200 years" -park ranger-
Pretty sure 1st nations people have been comming there for much much longer.
I never seen ot herd of this place bfore but like a month ago I dreamed I was looking down in a canyon at one these cabins that's crazy
What happens to mules when they get old and can no longer carry the load? Do you have asylum for them?

1%? I tried a few times in the past to make a advance reservation to stay at Phantom Ranch but they tell me they're book for the entire year. I stayed at the nearby Bright Angel campground but those college hipsters wouldn't shut up. I think a orgy was going on. Worst experience! Next time, I will visit as a day hike.
rezboy90. You can obtain a permit 3 months in advance, a back country permit. You list 3 sep start dates, close to one another- I've never not gotten one. Got to their website- again BACK COUNTRY PERMIT. Nothing like it
🇺🇲🎧🇺🇲
Why music?
My garandma has gone thare and shy said I is beuteful
*grandma *there *she *it *beautiful Language is an important skill; keep working on it. :)
@@cacatr4495 shut up pig
A nearly complete experience! The only thing missing was the animal feces, flies and constant smell of urine.
I know the canyon fairly well from multiple perspectives, N, S, E & W Rims, multiple side canyons, and multiple visits deep into the canyon. I have been to Phantom Ranch, and it was not the highlight of that trip. The climb out on the South Kaibab Trail was nearly vomit inducing. Phew!
Leave are lands alone plz leave are lands alone thank you
Holy shit all I can say at this moment

N
A moment to thank all the Mules for their time and bodys !
Since the day you carried a pregnant woman into a barn stall to give birth to a baby boy !
Thanks to the Mule .
The local humans.... NOT
Makes a person think !
Wasn't it more like this .
An unwed couple with a baby on the way looking for a room to have it in ?
Not here they say !
In the barn for them !
The locals start talking 👄Let's just say she is a virgin and God did it .
Hmmm
NOT the man she came to town with ???
No wonder for 2000 year or I guess for 2022 years motels made it
You had better sign in at the inn as a married couple .
I wonder if the baby born in the manger to an unwed mother ever grew up with locals crucifieing him?
You know I do believe .
I believe the Mule belongs under the Christmas tree Nativity scene !
Maybe the three wise kings realized the injustice and brought goods !
Today it would be a settlement .
No attention brought to our clean town ! Right!
Same page now !
She is the VIRGIN Mary.
Who did it ? GOD .
We know the rest of the story of
the story !
The baby the the unwed couple had ?
Hated ✔
Tortured ✔
Murdered ✔
Ahh Those Humans 😠
Love the Mules 💘
